Maranta 'Red', commonly known as the Prayer Plant, has deep green leaves with striking red veining and vibrant crimson undersides. True to its name, its leaves naturally fold upward at night and open again in the morning, a fascinating movement known as nyctinasty. This compact, low-growing plant thrives in bright, indirect light, consistently moist but well-draining soil, and higher humidity. It’s a great choice for desks, shelves, and plant collections, and is non-toxic to cats and dogs.
